COVID-19: EVERYTHING IS EASY FOR ALLĀH
By
Ibn Abdillah As-sudaisiy Al-Iloori
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, I have been thinking about a verse of the Qur'an that ends with:
- وَكَانَ ذَٰلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ يَسِيرًا
And ever is that, for Allah, easy [Surat Al-Ahzab 30]
In this verse, Allāh addressed the wives of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم harshly. He warned them against any act of indecency and He vowed to punish any of them found wanting with multiple punishment. And He said it is easy for Him to do it. These are people of the best generations of human beings. They are the mothers of the believers. Who are we compared to them? Yet, Allāh talked to them in that manner. Unfortunately, our own world is now filled with sins of different kinds. There is no evil that the Qur'an and Sunnah warned against except that we have them close to our noses in abundance.
Everything is easy for Allāh. Anyone who His doubting is existence should have a rethink. Anyone who is doubting His capacity to ressurrect us after spending many years in the soil or anywhere should begin to reason. We can see for ourselves how easy it is for Allāh to wipe off a whole generation if He wants to. He is the One creates and He has the sole authority and intellectual property right over everything that is in existence. Are we not suppose to be humble and submit ourselves to Him outrightly?
